Presentation List 2011

I want to publicly thank all the societies and conference organizers that have invited me to speak this year. I am grateful for the opportunity to speak on a subject I love, genealogy, and share that passion with others. I am also humbled by the support I continue to receive from the genealogy community. Like most of those who present, my speaking schedule is completed for 2010 and I now look forward to the opportunities that 2011 will bring.

Just some of the topics I have available for presentations are listed below. I have also updated my 2011 schedule here on my blog.
